@resonance462: While I'm sure I sound like a spam-bot for saying this, the Ion Drum Rocker, while having a higher up-front cost (200-300 USD), will last you for a very long time. And if money is no object, there is a Roland set that will be usable "fo reals" as well as within RB/GH (however, the Roland is priced as a…
